“…Imaging studies including ultrasound, CT, intravenous pyelography, cystourethrography, and magnetic resonance urography may be useful in diagnosing this rare condition. Calculi in the urinary tract especially in the vagina are very difficult to detect by ultrasonography, which should be performed with particular care [24].…”

“…In der vorliegenden Literatur häufig genannte Gründe des Einführens sind die Masturbation [2,7] und psychische Störungen [10]. Mitunter kommt es zu sehr langen Liegezeiten, wenn die Patientinnen den Fremdkörper ohne fremde Hilfe nicht mehr entfernen können und es ihnen peinlich ist, einen Arzt aufzusuchen [1,6,11]. Die in der Literatur angegebenen Zeitspannen betragen einige Wochen bis mehrere Jahre [4].…”

A case of 56-year-old patient is presented with the diagnosis "carcinoma of the cervix". She suffered from brown, bad smelling vaginal discharge since half a year without any pain. Three weeks before she had noticed a postmenopausal bleeding. At the examination under anaesthesia with cysto- and rectoscopy we saw a rectovaginal fistula. In the vagina a white plastic object was found which could not be removed. Some days later a hysterectomy with extraction of the foreign body (aerosol cap) was done and the fistula was treated together with the surgeons. There was no evidence of a carcinoma. The patient suffers from multiple sclerosis since 20 years. On asking she told us that the foreign body was in place since about two years. She was not willing to relate any other information.

“…The literature has reported objects such as bottle caps, a lead pencil, flashlight bulb, and plastic cup. [21][22][23] The most common foreign bodies encountered are toilet paper and lost tampons. If a foreign object is suspected and cannot be found on pelvic exam, an abdominal X-ray may be obtained to rule out the presence of a metallic object.…”

Abnormal bleeding is a common clinical problem in adolescents, with the vast majority of cases resulting from anovulatory menstrual cycles. Although most episodes of abnormal vaginal bleeding do not cause acute medical complications, bleeding can be traumatic for young patients and their families. Health care providers with a solid knowledge of menstrual physiology and a thorough approach to differential diagnosis can evaluate and appropriately manage adolescents. In this article, we review the maturation of the hypothalamic ovarian axis, the most frequent etiologies of abnormal bleeding, as well as other less common causes and discuss diagnosis and treatment modalities.
